Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…
This Lovin’ Cup- I was watching the idiot box and just holding my guitar when this little vamp on a B chord came out of nowhere. Using the same recorder, I recorded about 20 seconds of the riff. The lyrical idea came on the trip to Chicago, while…
This song started as the riff on my Strat while fooling around with some FX. I knew it needed to be a big dance number, and then realized there is a great story about the power of music and dance, which I hid in the lyrics. See if you can figure…

This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
the keys are lush in this butty, and the chorus melody is a delight.. love those songs that make you gag for the chorus like a scaghead for smack. solos a real treat too. triumph
gary i hadnt read your profile before. i hadnt realised entirely that you were a fellow complete and total maniac. i applaud your rainbow. may we always.

It's about a few folks, some known, some known to me. I liked the chunkiness of the chord that starts it, but wanted to do something a little more 'spacey' than a pure rock number. It's all true too.
A little fun riff that came from noodling on my Epi whilst watching the idiot box one night. It's kind of written for a friend who is a little lost in a self-imposed exile from life.

A long one, something of a centrepiece for the record. Open tuning and ebow fun.

Fancied trying some fast piano. This one sounds like the single to me.
This is the first piece that I recorded - just after midnite on Feb. 1st. with Anne Cozean in mind as vocalist. Anne and I have worked together before and she delivered a great performance across two tracks. I was thinking Portishead going in…

billy boy where did you go

None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?

And if I'm still living here.
